You hear it all the time, “dress for the job you want, not the job you have”, and this theory is a proven psychological theory that when you semi-overdress, you gain respect. Why did I create a whole new term “semi-overdress”? You get the point more by the term that I have coined so you stand out at the higher echelon of your job title and among your peers. If I say overdress, like many do, you wear a Tuxedo to a janitorial position…don’t be THAT guy. Dress for respect, stay clean-shaven if you need to, and don’t you DARE come into work on your days off in a t-shirt and flip flops.
